move heaven and earth

without further ado

show one's age

be going strong

go from rags to riches

sight unseen

get off one's rear

jump down A's throat

buy the farm

sit up and take notice

sing the same tune

hard as nails

on the sly

give A the finger

sink or swim

deceive oneself

give A the slip

have a nose for

on everyone's lips

sit on the fence

blow one's top

king's ransom

be music to A's ears

sit up and take notice

past one's sell-by date

slings and arrows

keep one's nose to the grindstone

move heaven and earth

hatchet job

keep a rein on

milk and honey

smart aleck

to a T

play the field

at death's door

sound as a bell

bite A's head off

spin one's wheels

keep one's nose to the grindstone

take the sting out of
